EAT

What: A Frenchy breakfast Where: La Boulangerie, Lower GreenvilleWhy: A little slice of Paris on Greenville Ave. Must-tries are the chocolate-almond croissant and the kouign-amann.

What: A boozy lunch in a classy setting
Where:Sissy’s, Knox-HendersonWhy: Who can say no to fried chicken and champagne? Request a seat on the screened porch.

What: A fancy-pants dinner
Where:FT33, Design DistrictWhy: The vibiest vibe and the freshest farm-to-table menu in town

What: A snack you haven’t had beforeWhere: Joy Macarons, Lower GreenvilleWhy: Texas summers are hot, and the macaron ice cream sandwich is everything.

What: A cup of joe with a splash of people-watching
Where: Weekend Coffee, DowntownWhy: A fashiony crowd haunts this jewel of perfection inside The Joule Hotel. Peek The Taschen Library while you’re there.

What: Happy hour on the cheapWhere:Top Knot, UptownWhy: Skip the wait for pricey sushi at Uchi and head upstairs to its laid-back little brother, where the happy hour menu offers five plates and five drinks for $5 each (daily, 5-6:30 p.m.).
